An epic, complete-colour visible adventure via all scales of the universe
In The Zoomable Universe, the award-successful astrobiologist Caleb Scharf and the acclaimed artist Ron Miller take us on an epic excursion via all identified scales of truth, from the biggest imaginable value to the smallest. Drawing on state of the art technology, they start on the limits of the observable universe, a scale spanning 10^27 meters―approximately 93 billion mild-years. And so they finish within the subatomic realm, at 10^-35 meters, the place the material of house-time itself confounds all identified regulations of physics. In among are galaxies, stars and planets, oceans and continents, vegetation and animals, microorganisms, atoms, and far, a lot more. Stops alongside the best way―all enlivened through Scharf’s glowing prose and his unique insights into the character of our universe―come with the intense middle of the Milky Method, the skin of a rogue planet, the again of an elephant, and a sea of jostling quarks.
The Zoomable Universe is choked with greater than 100 unique illustrations and infographics so one can captivate readers of all ages. This is a whimsical party of discovery, a testomony to our remarkable skill to look past our personal vantage aspect and chart a direction from the farthest reaches of the cosmos to its subatomic depths―in brief, a will have to-have for the cabinets of all explorers.
